Rathaus Weißensee

Rathaus Weißensee, Administrative building in Pankow, Germany

Rathaus Weißensee is the office building of the former Weißensee district, known as the Askania-Haus, at the corner of Berliner Allee and Liebermannstraße. The four-storey clinker brick complex in the New Objectivity style consists of two wings meeting at a slightly acute angle, closed by flat roofs; the corner building was raised by three stepped storeys in 1970. Golden letters above the main entrance still read "Rathaus Weißensee".

The building now called Rathaus Weißensee was built in 1939/1941 as an apparatus factory for the manufacturer Karl Otto Raspe, designed by architect Richard Schubert on the orders of the Reich Aviation Ministry. From the 1960s until the end of 1990 the Stasi used it for personnel and property protection. After renovation the Weißensee council moved in, and since the 2001 reform it has housed offices of the Pankow district authority.

The building is known as the Askania-Haus, after the Askania-Werke factory whose administration it housed from 1939/1941. From the 1960s until the end of 1990 the Stasi used it for personnel and object protection. After renovation, golden letters above the main entrance read "Rathaus Weißensee"; they are still there today.

The building is accessible for administrative matters and visits, though different departments may have varying hours. Visitors should call ahead or check the Pankow district website to confirm that the office they need is open and to arrange any scheduled visits.

The corner building along Berliner Allee and Liebermannstraße was raised by three storeys in 1970, with the two top floors stepped back to form a watchtower. From the 1960s until the end of 1990 the Stasi used the complex for personnel and property protection before the renovated building became the district council's seat.
